Regularized Bayesian calibration and scoring of the WD-FAB IRT model improves predictive performance over marginal maximum likelihood [PDF]
Item response theory (IRT) is the statistical paradigm underlying a dominant family of generative probabilistic models for test responses, used to quantify traits in individuals relative to target populations. The graded response model (GRM) is a particular IRT model that is used for ordered polytomous test responses.

Method of successive dichotomizations: An improved method for estimating measures of latent variables from rating scale data. [PDF]
The most commonly used models for estimating measures of latent variables from polytomous rating scale data are the Andrich rating scale model and the Samejima graded response model. The Andrich model has the undesirable property of estimating disordered

The application of the Rasch measurement model in rehabilitation is now well established. Both its dichotomous and polytomous forms provide for transforming ordinal scales into interval-level measures, consistent with the requirements of fundamental ...

Detecting Differential Item and Step Functioning with Rating Scale and Partial Credit Trees [PDF]
Several statistical procedures have been suggested for detecting differential item functioning (DIF) and differential step functioning (DSF) in polytomous items.

Multilevel IRT Modeling in Practice with the Package mlirt [PDF]
Variance component models are generally accepted for the analysis of hierarchical structured data. A shortcoming is that outcome variables are still treated as measured without an error.

Background Rare disease patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) require linguistic adaptation to overcome the challenge of geographically dispersed patient populations. Importantly, PROMs such as health-related quality of life (HRQoL) should accurately

Judging similarity versus judging difference
A key feature of the polytomous Rasch model is that it entails a single classification process into one of a set of ordered response categories. The first aim of this article is to make explicit two processes in rubric designs that bring about such ...
